Introduction to IID

IBM Integration Designer is an Eclipse-based software development tool that renders your current IT assets into service components for reuse in service-oriented architecture (SOA) solutions.

IBM Integration Designer (previously known as WebSphere Integration Developer) features a visual drag-and-drop programming and test environment and integrates tightly with WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), WebSphere DataPower, and other WebSphere adapters and business process management (BPM) platforms.

IBM Integration Designer accelerates time to value with these time-saving benefits:

• Enables business-driven development, fully integrating with WebSphere Business Modeler to import models for rapid implementation.
• Allows you to visually define the sequence and flow of business processes.
• Facilitates SOA solutions with support for several SOA-based applications.
• Integrates testing, debugging, and deployment for solution development.

IBM Integration Designer is the user-friendly authoring environment for end-to-end integration in your SOA.

IBM Integration Designer simplifies integration and accelerates the adoption of SOA by rendering current IT assets as service components for reuse and efficiency.

It is the Eclipse-based tool for building SOA-based BPM and integration solutions across WebSphere Process Server, WebSphere ESB, and WebSphere Adapters.

• Simplifies integration with rich features that accelerate the adoption of SOA by rendering existing IT assets as service components, encouraging reuse and efficiency.
• A simplified authoring experience that accelerates solution development, including enhanced mediation tooling support.
• Constructs process and integration solutions using intuitive drag-and-drop technology to visually define the sequence and flow of business processes.
• Integrates testing, debugging, and deployment for solution development.
• Enables Business-Driven Development, fully integrating with WebSphere Business Modeler to import models for rapid implementation.
• Supports generation of human interaction user interfaces that can be easily customized.
